I doubt he had received an offer, but isn't he just returning from a long layoff. Or am I missing something

Misleading stats. Error of linearity.

Napoleon55:

This type of stats and presumptions will not lead us any where.

I appreciate your opinions, but let's see who's misleading who.

Let's use the case of Iheanacho.

In the early embers of June 2020, when Kelechi was languishing in the back benches of the Leicester squad,
I made the statistical interpretation that Iheanacho needed just more gametime to flourish as one of the league's best.
But just like you both, the great Sir komekn rubbished this as " delusional and convolated manipulation of statistics."

Now 14 months later, ask yourself: Is Iheanacho a convoluted manipulation of stats? Or was he a diamond in the rough waiting to bloom?

Now tally your response to Henry Onyekuru.

TheSuperNerd:
Serie A kicked off yesterday.

Today will be the turn of our lad, Victor James Osimhen up against Ebuehi and Okereke with Venezia.

Game kicks off in 6 hours and 15 mins.

Below is the Current Most Valuable XI in Serie A according to Transfermrkt.

No more Lukaku since he's gone.

The Lille keeper!! Wow

Rumors are that Rohr isn't inviting new players. We'll wait and see.

You may be right that he's star and will bloom soonest but comparing to others in the manner you did is the error. You're assuming that because he did X in Y min, then he'll do 2X in 2Y min. You can't say because a player comes in, on his debut, at 80min and scores 2 goals that the player has better stats than Messi and Ronaldo?

For the records, Obafemi Martins first 120min was better - 3 goals. First against Ireland (unity Cup) in 2004 coming on as a sub and 2 more against Rwanda (world cup qualifier) in 2004. In both games he was outstanding and the darling of all fans not just me. Can same be said of your superstar?

Well, he isn't exactly "new" is he?

Joel Chukwuma Obi and Simy on bench for Salernitana

This Lokonga guy is not like an Arsenal signing, very very good

Former u17 star Ibrahim said playing for Viborg as a left winger. Game is on now. I believe in Akinkunmi smoos 2019 under 17 set. Will be part of our golden generation that will dominate football for decades

I think Coaching Arsenal would be one of the most difficult jobs for Managers in the EPL

We finish third on the medal table with 4 gold and 3 Bronze in the U-20 World Athletics Championship. Kudos to the athletes and coaches for the good outing. Hopefully the AFN will continue to nurture our athletes for a good outing in Paris 2024. Let's not give up on these talented youngsters!

You're reiterating my stance, all right, brother: Goal per game alone is not indicative of quality at all.

Paco Alcacer had one of the best goal ratio at Dortmund, where is he today?

When assessing quality, you have to marry different characteristics to arrive at a conclusive analysis.

This was the case with Iheanacho.
A combination of his goal per game rate, link-up play, conversion rate, ability under pressure, aeriel prowess, ball control... brought me to the conclusion that he was better than his return showed, not just one stat.

But most importantly, I watched him live because not every feature (like movement) goes on paper.

For the case of Onyekuru, I never said he is the best winger ever. No. Someone opined that Victor Moses was Nigeria's most productive or efficient winger of all time.

But statistics show that, Onyekuru takes that accolade by a long mile.

Nigeria will never dominate anything in sports talkless of football. There is no golden generation anywhere! The country lack what it takes to dominate in sports

There is a golden generation abeg.. The development of these players doesn't entirely rest on he country... The country produce talents but can't nurture them...those who are nurtured in better countries will still come back to represent us....

I think this should be their best ever performance. The kid that won the men's 200 metres and the lady that won 3 gold medals are definitely future global stars. Hope they get the support and backing from all stakeholders.

Onyekuru is quite different from most wingers we have produced,to be honest... He is a Mane type of player... except that he doesn't seem to have the kind of work rate and off the field dedication that Mane has... In the few times Rohr has given him a chance in the team,he has performed...

We can do it at least in football. Maybe in track and field but i am sure of football.
As per football, all we need is grassroots football and football academies and that is all.
Grassroots football is growing. Too many football academies in Nigeria. in fact, the surulere league is going on right now.
Secondly, we are a footballing country and so we have a footballing culture and history to fall back on. For example, cricket is the main sport
in India and so they can easily dominate that sport.
We are a historical football country and dominating football is organic to us and we do not have to force it like the Chinese are trying to do.
In fact, right now there is a Nigerian teenager in the Bayern world team (Daniel Francis Dada) and so many talents are being discovered at grassroots level.
Also, add the diaspora Nigerians that we can tap into and we have a powerful combination.
We have that history and pedigree and all we have to do is build on it and some structures are being built.
I mean there is Vandrezzar fc which is run like a professional club
also, Barcelona and as roma have their academies in Nigeria.
We have had, still have and will continue to have Nigerian stars that are at least up to standard (i dont want to mention names).
Dominating football is not alien to us.
I leave in Ibadan and i live near the house Mutiu Adepoju built for his father and i know Yekini's house in Ibadan
Football is tiwantiwa to us. We can do it and i like the modalities been put in place

Yep, it's out best outing ever. 2 athletes got scholarships to Baylor and another 2 automatically qualified for next year's Diamond league (it may be the same 2).

Ehizibhue with an assist against Bayern..

Whatsup with him by the way

Yes you are right read somewhere that the lady got a scholarship to Baylor. The guy is American born. What impresses me about him is even though he's just 18 he's already run 20.13! (unfortunately it wasn't officially recognized due to excess wind). Even the 20.21 he ran in the final is quite fast for someone his age. Hopefully the glory days of athletics in Nigeria is back.

Passport issues. Read somewhere that in order to represent SE he will need to surrender his Dutch citizenship or some convoluted reason like that sha.

Ibrahim Said (u17 star) scores for Viborg

We would have won the 4 by 100m men relay in world record time instead of South Africa if our 3rd guy did not pull a hamstring! I was pained!

It was Brume. He was already injured so it was expected.

Why use him, then?

No replacement. Either he showed up or they dropped out.
